Music Class

Ella had her last music class at the local college today and Nana and Pa took her as I'm just too tired and it's much too difficult now to be getting up and down and dancing around. :) Ella really flourished in this 3 month long class and I'm really happy she got the chance to do this. Here are some pictures from her last class.

She now LOVES the parachute!!

Playing with the tambourines and egg shakers...

On the trampoline...

Singing and keeping the beat. Ella apparently hogged the trampoline. :)

Smiling and having fun!

Though this class was really a wonderful class, I believe Ella learned a new bad habit from the class; throwing things! Some of the other kids in class would constantly throw the egg shakers and other music makers and Ella eventually picked up on it! As a result, the little one had her first time out today. :( She was throwing her play food around the house and not listening when I told her no. I sat her in the corner and she sat perfectly fine for a whole minute and a half. No crying, no trying to leave, she was great. We've never had to do time out before because every other time we've told her not to do something she's stopped. Hopefully time outs won't become a regular thing in our house. She's so sweet. I really do feel so blessed to have such a sweet, well-behaved, good natured baby.
